VMware Cloud on AWS

Only cloud or only on-premises?

The answer is almost a “neither-nor”. It is an important question for enterprises that want to split workloads across private and public clouds or want to migrate its workloads to public cloud with less effort. The concept of SDDC provides a common virtual infrastructure for migrating computing resources on demand among private, public and hybrid clouds.

Best of breed leaders

Based on the figures VMware is the most accepted solution in the virtualization arena for every company size meanwhile the Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the most popular public cloud services provider, therefore it seemed highly appropriate to create seamless interoperability between the two platforms.

Full VMware functionality

VMware Cloud on AWS takes the entire VMware software-defined data center to AWS cloud by using bare-metal servers hosted by Amazon. Enterprises do not need a separate IT operations staff to run the hypervisor or to manage any of the underlying hardware, including monitoring, patching and updates.

Typical valuable scenarios

Disaster Recovery

Efficient application dev/test environment in the cloud…etc.
